What is a Wedding Dress Trunk Show?Â It is a traveling collection of wedding dresses highlighting one particular wedding gown designer.Â These exclusive wedding dresses travel from one bridal boutique to the next, normally staying at one location or area for a very limited time.Â Gowns from their newest collection will be on display, and you may even get the chance to meet the designer in person!

Why should you attend a Wedding Dress Trunk Show?

1).Â Preview wedding dresses from the designer BEFORE they are released to the public!Â Â See, feel, and try on the latest wedding trends before they hit websites or are available to try on in stores (except for an exclusive trunk show).

2).Â Find a one-of-a-kind wedding dress.Â Wedding dress trunk shows offer brides one-of-a-kind dresses to stand out and be different which may be in your region or market for 1-3 days only.

3).Â Extras and Promotions included with your designer wedding gown purchase for a limited time only.Â With the Wedding Dress Trunk show, there will normally be promotions and extras which you may receive when you purchase during the trunk show.Â Bridal boutiques may offer a discount for the gown, or offer a few extras such as a fabric change, extra buttons, additional fabric, veil, shoes, or other â€śperksâ€ť which are not offered in the bridal boutique on a day-to-day basis.

4).Â You may get a chance to talk to the Wedding Dress Designer!Â Designers are sometimes on site for wedding dress trunk shows.Â Find out if you may make an appointment when you purchase your gown to meet the designer as an added bonus.

What should you do or know before attending a Wedding Dress Trunk Show?

1).Â Do your homework to know what you love in a wedding gown.Â Ask your bridal boutique associate to show you wedding gowns from the collection which fit your body type, match your style, and are within your budget.Â You may have to increase your budget for the â€śgownâ€ť you want, and decrease a budget item elsewhere to get â€śthe dress!â€ť

2).Â Call early to make an appointment with the bridal boutique so you reserve a time and day which works for your schedule.Â With the dress collections being in town a limited time (normally 1 â€“ 3 days), available appointment times are booked quickly.Â Your time is valuable, and the last thing you want to do is wait in line as a â€śwalk-inâ€ť!

3).Â Wedding Dress Trunk Shows do not feature clearance or discounted gowns.Â With limited time in your area, and the high demand for the designer gowns, you will need to purchase your gown in a short period of time.
